              INVESTMENT OBJECTIVES AND POLICIES
                               
  The third paragraph describing the Lexington SmallCap Fund's
investment policy found on page 26 of the Prospectus has been
replaced by the following:  In selecting investments for the Fund,
the Manager and Sub-Adviser have established a universe of small
capitalization stocks that are screened using the Sub-Adviser's
proprietary stock selectivity model. Once the stocks are evaluated
and ranked by expected future relative price performance, the Manager
and Sub-Adviser establish both sector and diversification allocations
in building the portfolio. In addition, the quality of the company
and the risk/reward prospects for each security is reviewed and
analyzed. This approach takes into account both value and growth
stocks rather than being limited to only a value criteria. The
Manager and Sub-Adviser believe that this multi-faceted process will
enhance investment performance and will improve the consistency of
portfolio results over time. The Manager and Sub-Adviser can change
the proportion of the Fund's assets that are invested in particular
companies and industries based on its evaluation of the outlook for
specific industries and companies and the economy.
